Hi Tony, If you have access to the CSS used to render the XML in the Author visual editing mode, in the CSS after all the imports you can define this namespace:
@namespace oxy "http://www.oxygenxml.com/extensions/author";
and then add this extra selector to it:
oxy|entity { display:-oxy-morph !important; -oxy-display-tags: default !important; -oxy-tags-background-color:yellow !important; -oxy-tags-color:green !important; }
By the way for the next Oxygen version (version 17) we changed the default display of entity references in the Author visual editing mode to hide the start and end tags completely for them, something like:
-oxy-display-tags: none !important;
What do you think of the change we plan to make? It makes entity references look more seamlessly embedded in the content. Regards, Radu Radu Coravu <oXygen/> XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT Editor/Debugger http://www.oxygenxml.com On 1/20/2015 11:48 AM, Tony Graham wrote:
Would you consider supporting a separate colour for the indicative 'tags' for the start and end of an external parsed entity that are shown when viewing all tags in 'Author' mode?
The background does change, and there is the rather small icon, but there are sometimes three or more tags (real and indicative, combined) on the lines at the start and end of an external parsed entity.
